LER 76-28 Palisades (Continued From Line 10)
The system has continued to operate properly until the present time and consequently we are unable to determine the cause of the problem. We plan to exercise the asso-ciated relay from the computer terminal during the next scheduled outage in an attempt to duplicate this problem. If this attempt fails and no hardware dis-crepancies are found, the computer program will be revieved for any oversight which may have permitted the problem to occur.
